Live your life with the appreciation of each day but as you have a full lifetime ahead of you. Any goals or dreams you have go for them. Have a child, I did, it was hard and I was very sick and had to stay in bed but it was worth it. My daughter is now 21 and I have a grandson. I have a list of diseases because with lupus its very common to get "tag along auto immune problems". Hang in there, remember on the bad flare up days, that it will pass and get a little better. God bless u

I was diagnosed with lupus 4 months ago. There are days that I am still trying to understand how to cope.

You are such a brave young lady. I admire your being positive in life.

Take Care...
